April 14, 200817 yr So I started to get sick this last frieday. Absolutely no energy by the time 2:30 pm rolled around. Woke up at 5:00pm with a little more and stayed up untill about 11:30pm. SATURDAY.......Woke up at about 7:30am. Had a glass of airborne and was back in bed untill 12:00pm. Woke up around 4ish. Managed to choke down some soup and watch a little tv. For some reason my eyes would start watering and become very bloodshoot as well. They also kind of "hurt" when I turn them. So I went back to sleep around 6:30pm. Woke up again at 9:30pm watched part of another movie was sleeping again at around 11:30pm. It was very weird when I was sleep. I would have hot/cold flashes like nobodies buisness....Now I can't remember the last time I ever flashes if ever but this was crazy. I would be covered by my comforter and next thing you know I'm shivering because I freakin freezing. Room temp was about 71. No more then 5 min. later. I would be sweating. Just burning up. Something I've never really felt before. My skin was all tingley specially my scalp all day. My eyes, like i said, would become very blood shot, dry, water a lot, and start to "hurt" the longer I stayed awake. Walking was a difficult process as well. My coordination and balanced was not with me yesterday at all. I stumbled from side to side the times I went from the couch, to my bed, and bathroom. what a fun filled day....I don't get sick very often. Last time I was sick, it was about two winters ago. Had a bad strep throat I believe. This though, I don't know what the hell this would clasify as. I've never slept so much in one freakin day. Today though, I woke up at 9:30 am. and managed to stay awake untill 5, before my eyes started doing that thing again. Woke up around 7:30ish and decided to share this with you guys.
April 14, 200817 yr Same thing happened to me to. First day I couldn't get out of bed though it's like all my muscles failed in my body I could barely roll over I woke up once that day and couldn't move so I fell asleep again for about 15 hours. Then I woke up the second day and could move I drank all the Juice I could in the house to some Vitamin C in my body don't take pain killers or pharmacy drugs for that matter. I couldn't stay up for that long though and kept falling asleep and waking up couldn't taste anything either. Now the third day I actually made it to my Pc and actually played for about 1 hour before I got a headache and got dizzy. Again my mom bought like 4 things of Orange Juice which I drank all of them. Then went back to bed. The 4th day amazingly I woke up didn't get dizzy when I got out of bed and walked around without a sore in my body could taste things and actually had an appetitte. I would get hot and cold just like you too I got this about 3 months ago though. Don't know what it could be but it was really weird being fine the day before then waking up and not being able to move lol.
April 14, 200817 yr If anything i would say call a doctor or go to the hospital cause right now it sounds like your in pretty bad shape. If anything at least call your doctor and get his opinion.
April 14, 200817 yr what street described is kind of like what i had in highschool its like a cold but theres no test for it atm. i was sick for a week and couldnt get out of bed. went to the doctor they couldnt find anything with the blood test so they just did a basic antibiotic.
April 14, 200817 yr Get well Phrogg it sounds like that you have the flu. Plenty of rest and keep your fluids up
April 14, 200817 yr Author I always thought if you had the flu, then you also had the runs as well. Today ought to be interesting. Get to go to work. I'm just hoping I don't pass out! LOL!!! I should be for atleast a couple hrs before I start getting really exhausted. I'm not a huge fan of missing work.
April 14, 200817 yr That sux, i've never had to deal with any kind of flashes like that. Hope you get better!
April 14, 200817 yr For some reason my eyes would start watering and become very bloodshoot as well. They also kind of "hurt" when I turn them. Just starting to get over a little cold, and I had the same thing happen to me friday at work...made for a fun little ride home.

Hope you feel better Phrogg.
April 15, 200817 yr Sleep most important. Try to get atleast 8 hrs. Make up 1 or 2 or 3 next night if short previous night. Also, take mega vitamins/minerals/fish oil pills fpr health help ... include lean protein like fish meat or chicken ... not red meat but some okay ... lots of fiber from nuts/veggies, etc ... carbs from rice ... unless athlete, not many carbs needed which otherwise unused turn to fat ... best wishes, Hogan and Kat ;-)
April 15, 200817 yr Lat time I felt like that it ended up being appendicitis. Very much like you described except for the eye ball thing and my side was hurting.
